"A Day in the Life..." focuses attention on the lives of people living with HIV/AIDS and their caregivers, attempting thereby to personalize the global impact of this virus. It offers journal entries -- personal stories of everyday life, memories, poems, and anecdotes -- from people with HIV/AIDS, physicians, artists, AIDS service workers, caregivers, family members, and people who have lost a loved one, giving context and a new understanding to the AIDS pandemic.
